AC93 Posted September 19, 2017 Share Posted September 19, 2017 Hi, Just swapped my aftermarket wheels for 17" OEM's and would like new nuts. I've found the following on eBay, they look correct but just wanted to double check. Or can they be had cheaper elsewhere, or avoided at all costs? Toyota want £5.50 + VAT for each one, so £132 for 20 https://www.ebay.co.uk/i/232368534424 Cheers, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AC93 Posted September 19, 2017 Author Share Posted September 19, 2017 Just seen these on Eurocarparts, anyone had experience with these? http://www.eurocarparts.com/ecp/c/Toyota_Supra_3.0_1994/p/car-parts/transmission-parts/car-transmission/wheel-bolt-and-wheel-nut/?924730090&1&f113e33feea926515e6c7d603560e2a7a57243a3&000866 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dnk Posted September 20, 2017 Share Posted September 20, 2017 (edited) I'd be concerned about the ebay ones, the material listed just says toughened steel, i'd rather see what they are made of specifically This advert is better but no idea if they are any better than others listed, personally unless i found OE or OEM quality i'd suffer buying Toyotas http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Set-of-20-x-M12-x-1-5-21mm-Hex-Flat-Seat-Toyota-Alloy-Wheel-Nuts-Silver/172023180427?_trkparms=aid%3D888007%26algo%3DDISC.MBE%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D46150%26meid%3D108be54f8b6c42558f44f7976e63c6c4%26pid%3D100009%26rk%3D1%26rkt%3D1%26sd%3D130679954320&_trksid=p2047675.c100009.m1982 Edited September 20, 2017 by Dnk (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AC93 Posted September 23, 2017 Author Share Posted September 23, 2017 Thanks for that! I went to ECP and it was just gold nuts, no washer and nothing like an OEM nut! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marty Posted September 24, 2017 Share Posted September 24, 2017 I had the same quandary last year, i ended up buying these off eBay so i could fit my Uk specs over winter... http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/16-x-original-spec-M12-x-1-5-21mm-Hex-flat-Seat-O-E-style-alloy-wheel-nuts-lugs-/261863512106?hash=item3cf848182a:g:XWQAAOSwqu9VOOsy 16 due to having 4 locking wheel nuts. Quality wise they are just fine, solid construction and no signs of corrosion etc over a full winters use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

samdale Posted October 5, 2018 Share Posted October 5, 2018 I will have a look to see if I have 20 spare! That'll be great if you have. Even better if they can be posted pronto. I need to buy tyres and don't want to buy any for the aftermarket wheels on there currently. I'm going away in it a week on Saturday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
